QA Automation Engineer SDET (AI & Parity Focus)
Job Summary
The Project: Internal Support Tools Evolution
You are joining an initiative focused on the evolution modernization of the Internal Application Landscape. This project involves the strategic transition of well-known cloud services and architectures into a next-generation AI-augmented and cloud-native software landscape.
Our goal is not simply to maintain the existing system but to proactively transform itensuring sovereignty high-performance scalability and seamless handover readiness through disciplined engineering.
Our Engineering Philosophy
We operate at the intersection of Legacy Stability and Modern Innovation. Our approach is defined by:
AI-Augmented Engineering: We utilize advanced AI development environments (such as Cursor Windsurf and Claude Code) and cutting-edge model families to accelerate code comprehension refactoring and documentation.
Disciplined SDLC Patterns: We move beyond traditional development by implementing repeatable evidence-based SDLC patterns. Every change is backed by structured engineering evidence and rigorous automated testing.
The Strangler Fig Modernization: We prioritize risk-mitigated evolution using sophisticated patterns to wrap refactor and eventually replace legacy components.
High-Seniority Autonomy: We operate as a lean highly autonomous unit. We value technical detectives who can navigate ambiguity and perform deep reverse engineering.
Mission
To build the automated safety net that makes our modernization efforts possible. You will ensure that as we evolve the Internal Application Landscape we maintain absolute functional parity and prevent any regressions in our mission-critical business logic.
Role Focus
This role focuses on building scalable automation frameworks and implementing AI-driven testing strategies. You will verify that modernized components produce identical business outcomes to the legacy systems they replace using both traditional and AI-augmented testing techniques.
Key Responsibilities
Automated Regression & Parity Testing: Design and maintain comprehensive automated regression suites to protect legacy functionality and verify functional parity during migration.
AI-Augmented Testing: Leverage AI-powered tools for automated test generation self-healing test scripts and intelligent visual regression testing.
Framework Development: Build and optimize scalable automation frameworks (UI API and Integration levels) specifically tailored and modern cloud-native environments.
Continuous Testing (CI/CD): Integrate automated test suites into DevOps pipelines (GitLab/GitHub/Jenkins) to provide immediate high-confidence feedback.
API & Integration Testing: Validate complex data flows and integrations between legacy monoliths and new modern services.
Collaboration: Work side-by-side with Developers and Architects to identify testable areas in legacy code and advocate for improved testability.
Qualifications :
Experience: 5 years in automated software testing with a strong background in software engineering/SDET.
Automation Mastery: Proficiency with Playwright Selenium or Cypress and API testing frameworks (RestSharp etc.).
AI/Modern Testing: Hands-on familiarity with AI coding/testing assistants and the ability to implement automated regression strategies in complex environments.
Programming Proficiency: Strong coding skills in C# to build and maintain sophisticated test automation code.
Analytical Rigor: A detective mindset with the ability to translate undocumented legacy behaviors into precise automated test scenarios.
